Hose Clamps for a Wide Range of Applications
Clamps are devices used to fasten a hose to a pipe, fitting or other connection, securing it in place and preventing leakage.
The average hose clamp consists of a metal (usually stainless steel) band or strap with a mechanism that allows the band to be adjusted for tightness. Center punch and worm gear clamps are the two of the most common types of hose clamps.
Center punch clamps, also known as ear clamps or Oetiker clamps, feature a round clamp with a stamped indentation on the band. When the clamp is properly installed and tightened, the indentation creates a “bite” into the hose. This provides a more secure and leak-resistant connection. Center punch clamps are often used for automotive, refining, and other industrial applications.
Worm gear clamps, also known as hose clamps or worm drive clamps, consist of a metal band with a worm gear mechanism that is used to tighten the clamp. Worm gear clamps are used to secure hoses onto pipes or fittings, making them useful for plumbing, HVAC, automotive, and other industrial applications.
Hose clamps are available in a wide range of sizes, tolerances, materials, and designs. It’s not uncommon to see a center punch clamp with a worm gear control mechanism.
Benefits of Hose Clamps
Hose clamps are used by a wide range of industries for hundreds of applications. That’s because they provide several benefits. One of the main benefits is their versatility. In addition to hoses, they can be used to secure cables, pipes, tubes, etc. Clamps come in a variety of sizes and designs, making them ideal for a wide range of jobs.
Hose clamps are also easy to use. Connect the hose to the connection, place the clamp around the hose, and tighten until the hose is fitted securely. Stainless steel clamps are sturdy and durable. They don’t corrode and are designed to tolerate high levels of tension and pressure.
